tar xvfz gnucash-2.4.0.tar.gz

sudo aptitude build-dep gnucash
sudo aptitude install texinfo subversion intltool libdbi0-dev libdbd-{sqlite3,pgsql,mysql} guile-1.8 guile-1.8-dev doxygen libdbi0-dev libdbd-{sqlite3,pgsql,mysql}

cd /usr/share/guile/1.8
sudo ln -s ../../slib slib
sudo guile -c "(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'new-catalog)"

cd ~/gnucash-2.4.0/

./configure --prefix=$HOME/stable/gnucash --enable-debug --enable-doxygen --enable-error-on-warning --enable-compile-warnings --enable-dbi
make all install

and finally, run it
